Notes on the contributors -- List of abbreviations -- Introduction: the political economy of agro-food markets in China : the social construction of markets in an era of globalization -- The theoretical foundation of agro-food markets -- Markets as political institutions -- An approach to food quality in China : agenda for a future research -- From producers to consumers: the market for food products -- Post-reform grain markets and prices in China -- China's sugar under globalization forces : market structures and state decision making in the context of liberalization -- A diachronic analysis of the beef industry -- Understanding the growth and the decline of small-farm productions in the swine industry in Guangdong province and in China from 1980 to 2010 -- From farm to factory : fibres and biofuels -- China's cotton market as a strategic action field -- Drivers and dynamics of the Chinese wool market -- Development of contract farming in Chinese sericulture and silk industry -- Growth, globalization and upgrading of the Chinese cashmere industry -- Fuels for the future? the emerging architecture in China's liquid biofuels market -- Conclusion: economic sociology and the political economy of China's agro-food markets.

After thirty years of reforms and continuous economic growth, China's agricultural production and food consumption have increased tremendously, leading to a complete evolution of agro-food markets. The authors use a path dependency approach to analyze the development of these markets, the structure of which remains relatively unknown. The authors use agro-food industries in China, to describe the organization of agricultural markets in China, and its implication for local people as well as for her integration into the world economy. The book is divided into two parts; the first part reviews the theoretical framework for the 'social construction of the markets,' while the second part presents the implication for the agro-food markets in China.
